Abstract

Advanced practice providers (APPs) are integral members of the multidisciplinary health care team, providing access to high quality and cost-effective patient care. Despite the consistent increase in demand for APPs, these practitioners often lack role clarity, frequently resulting in poor job satisfaction and retention. Establishing an advanced practice provider council within organizations is a positive step in providing APPs with a platform for increasing their visibility, peer support, and decision-making power, thereby improving their engagement within the organization.
